Robots, Legos and trains have been on the agenda.
E meets a robot at a Mini Maker Faire. What a neat concept bringing together techies, engineers, crafters, artists and makers of all kinds!
Some “boy time” at E’s first Lego convention.
Throw in some animals.
The first signs of Christmas arrived pretty early in the month (of November, that is!).
Stalking Santa. This was opening day and we were NOT stupidly going to wait in line for hours. :P Have to throw this in — What does the fox say??? :)
We got in the spirit with a carriage ride!
The first of many tree lightings.
Gone huntin’. Yep, with a pink gun. :)
We took photos here for his first Christmas. Father Time, stand still for a moment, will you?
And this one is prob gonna be a Star Wars fan like Daddy.
He calls the Storm Troopers “stomper choo choo”.
Playing!
Can you spot kite, Daddy and Son? :)
Happy Big 2, Aslan!
You mean I get to eat cake while wearing a Cars hat?
It was months ago we visited Hope Park and E couldn’t do nearly as much as he could this time.
Scouted out a new skate/scooter park in McKinney.
We bought a membership to the Heard Museum and went on a nice day while their Dinosaurs Live! exhibit was still happening.
E was excited to see them but yet a little scared, though he did acknowledge they were “just plastic”. :P
And there was more to see and do in the museum!
We had to drive out to Irving for packet pick-up for Mommy’s last race of the season so we stopped by The Tubes at IBC. Last time we were here, it was sans a kiddo.
He made us climb through the dang thing w/ him, over and over and over. :D Mommy’s knees survived enough for an awesome race that weekend but Daddy was pretty sore. In this case, tallness was clearly a disadvantage. Hehe.
“Reading” (Daniel the Tiger, a fave) to Princess!
More to come, as always!
Oh, I’ve heard a thousand stories of what they think you’re like
But I’ve heard the tender whisper of love in the dead of night
And you tell me that you’re pleased
And that I’m never alone
You’re a Good, Good Father
It’s who you are, it’s who you are, it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you
It’s who I am, it’s who I am, it’s who I am
Oh, and I’ve seen many searching for answers far and wide
But I know we’re all searching
For answers only you provide
Cause you know just what we need
Before we say a word
You’re a Good, Good Father
It’s who you are, it’s who you are, it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you
It’s who I am, it’s who I am, it’s who I am
Cause you are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us
Oh, it’s love so undeniable
I, I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable
I, I can hardly think
As you call me deeper still
Into love, love, love
Tomlin, we tire of you not.
Happy Thanksgiving! We’re off to spend a week or so in San Diego.
Grateful, ever grateful, yet not nearly enough.
